Workbenches

Workbenches are typically heavy duty tables designed specifically as a place that a range of different work is carried out. Varying in size, height and material, workbenches are typically designed to suit exactly the intended job. A workbench may also feature storage for tools and supplies in various ways such as shelves under or above the bench, as well as drawers or cabinets built under the worktop.

A reliable workbench is the centrepiece of any workspace, either for DIY or in the industry a purpose made workspace is essential. Whether for woodworking, stripping an engine or repairing electronic devices, an appropriate workstation makes life easier and helps you to keep organised and productive.

Forming the top part of a workbench, bench worktops can be made from solid wood, laminated particle board or steel. The type of material effects the durability and practicality of the worktop. For example, metal tops do not absorb liquid like wood, so are more suitable when working with oils and other liquids. Wooden worktops are ideal for general applications, for example, carpentry. Application specific benches may have certain additional features to make it more suited such as a woodwork bench may have a clamp built into the front edge for holding work. A welding bench may have a grid of holes suitable for use with table clamps and a garage workbench may have a pegboard-style backboard to hang basic tools up for ease of use and to provide a clean and tidy working environment.
